  1. Cancer

  2. Trichomoniasis

  3. Pneumonia

  4. Malaria

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:
Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted disease caused by Trichomonas vaginalis
Pneumonia is caused by bacteria
Cancer - uncontrolled cell division, while Malaria is a protozoan disease
So, the correct answer is 'Trichomoniasis'

Which one of the following groups includes all sexually transmitted disease?

sexually transmitted diseases stds and infertility reproductive health reproduction biology

  1. AIDS, Syphilis, Cholera

  2. HIV, Malaria, Trichomoniasis

  3. Gonorrhoea, Hepatitis- B, Chlamydiasis

  4. Hepatitis-B, Haemophilia, AIDS

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

All of the diseases like AIDS, Gonorrhoea, hepatitis- B, chlamydiosis, and syphilis are sexually transmitted diseases. While cholera, malaria, hemophilia are water-borne, parasitic and Mendelian disorders respectively.

So the correct option is 'Gonorrhoea, hepatitis- B, chlamydiasis'.

The symptom of hepatitis B is

So the correct option is 'All of the above'.

A farmer introduced garden lizards into his agricultural fields to eradicate insects. This method is

sexually transmitted diseases stds and infertility reproductive health reproduction biology

  1. Environmental ethic method

  2. Biological control method

  3. Bio accumulation method

  4. Bio magnification method

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

There are different forms of pest control methods for the elimination of the insects and pests. If a farmer introduces the organisms or pests which can act on the other harmful pests, known as the biological control method. This method involves the use of living organisms for the eradication of the insects in the farm which destroy the crops. The lizards feed on the insects and protect the crops. 

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

  1. Both the Assertion and the Reason are true and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

  2. Both the Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

  3. The Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

  4. Both the Assertion and Reason are false.

  5. The Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Chlamydiosis or Chlamydia infection is the most commonly sexually transmitted disease and affects the human genital organs. This is caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. Gonorrhea or gonococcal urethritis, is a sexually transmitted infection found in men and is caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae and this infection do not show much difference from that caused by Chlamydia trachomatis in men. 

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Read the following statements and select the incorrect one.

  1. Semen is preserved for artificial insemination by heating

  2. Mating of an animal within the same breed, but having no common ancestors on either side of their pedigree upto 4 - 6 generations is called as outcrossing

  3. Example of interspecific hybridisation is mule

  4. Hinny is a hybrid between the female ass and stallion.

Show answer
Correct Option: A

When a species of an organism cannot form a zygote but the zygote survives, the phenomenon is known as

biology reproductive health stds and infertility gm crops biotechnology

  1. Hybrid vigour

  2. Hybrid sterility

  3. Hybrid zygote

  4. Hybrid fertility

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Hybrid zygotes sometimes develop into adults, such as mules (hybrids between female horses and male donkeys), but the adults fail to develop functional gametes and are sterile. This phenomenon is called as hybrid sterility. Thus, option B is correct. 

Heterosis, also called hybrid vigour, the increase in such characteristics as size, growth rate, fertility, and yield of a hybrid organism over those of its parents. Plant and animal breeders exploit heterosis by mating two different pure-bred lines that have certain desirable traits. Thus, option A is wrong. 
In some cases, no barriers exist to mating between members of different species. In these cases, the zygote formed is called a hybrid zygote. Thus, option C is wrong. 
Fertility ability of a hybrid is called as hybrid fertility. Thus, option D is wrong.

The ova are released by hormone induction and fertilization by artificial insemination and then embryo is stored at 4$^o$C for several years. This technique is known as

  1. Artificial insemination

  2. Embryo transplantation

  3. Super ovulation

  4. Preservation of embryo

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Embryo cryopreservation or preservation of embryo is generally performed as a component of in vitro fertilization which generally also include ovarian stimulation, ovarian hyperstimulation or superovulation, egg retrieval, artifical insemination and embryo transfer.

Bull semen for the purpose of artificial insemination is stored in 

biology reproductive health stds and infertility gm crops biotechnology

  1. Ice

  2. Liquid oxygen

  3. Liquid nitrogen

  4. Liquid CO$ _2$

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Artificial insemination is a globally accepted method of breeding cattle and is also effective for other species. Semen can be stored deep-frozen in liquid nitrogen, in a chilled liquid form or at room temperature. Its low temperature of $-196^0$C and inert caracteristics prevent the deterioration of biological quality. Hence, option C is correct.
